Since the birth of the refrigerator, the ice tray has been an important utensil in the refrigerator. It seems to be nothing special. Most people’s impression of the ice tray is a simple mold for making ice cubes. In fact, it can significantly enhance the fun of the kitchen. To a large extent, people’s requirements for ice trays are only to be able to make ice cubes conveniently. However, in the modern society with the rapid development of technology, it is difficult for consumers in the new era not to put forward new requirements for ice trays. At present, the ice trays on the market can be divided into plastic ice trays and silicone ice trays. How to choose the best ice tray is a topic we want to discuss.
The main points of choosing ice trays
No matter how the style of ice trays is updated, safety is always the first factor we consider when purchasing ice trays. The most advantageous product in this regard is the silicone ice tray. The raw material of the ice tray fundamentally determines whether the ice tray is safe for the human body.

Therefore, ice cube made of silicone meet the highest standards of food safety and can be handled normally even by sensitive pregnant women and babies.
Another problem that cannot be avoided is the practicality of the ice cube tray. People who have used traditional plastic ice trays often struggle to associate it with the word “utility.” If you want to get the ice out of the plastic ice tray, then you need to spend twice as much effort than the silicone ice tray. This is definitely an annoying thing to do. On the contrary, liquid silicone rubber with strong physical inertness gives the ice tray the ability to remain soft and elastic in extreme low temperature, the ice cubes can be released very easily, which saves you time and brings you more The joy of cooking.
When you’re done using your ice tray, you’ll definitely want your ice tray to be cleaned quickly. Silicone ice trays do just that. Silicone itself is an anti-fouling material. Thanks to this, silicone ice trays can usually be cleaned with a small amount of detergent and water after use. In addition, it can withstand long-term high-intensity use, and even repeated pulling and squeezing will not cause its material to deteriorate. In a sense, it represents the development direction of environmental protection concepts in modern society.
Silicone ice trays are also more malleable than plastic ice trays. Engineers use the silicone injection molding process and compression molding process to make liquid silicone rubber into any desired shape of the ice tray, and can add non-toxic pigments to change the color of the product. Silicone ice trays of any shape, color and size can be custom produced.
